I'd go for the 270, give you a nice improvement in the mid-range and will work well with a T25 turbo
The 285 is the better cam but its more for top end power, would only use one of those if you going big, high revving engine
O I see so unless I'm going for a bigger turbo then the 270 is better plus am I right in thinking that with the 270 I don't need the piper valve springs or vernier pulley

I personally don't think you need to go too wild on the cam when going for moderate power, even a standard cam will get 200bhp its just the 270 helps it a lot more and gives more mid-range
You can use standard springs with the 270, a vernier is a good idea for any cam allows you to adjust the cam timing to gain the most out of it and alter the power band abit too
Ok wicked cheers for info mate all starting to make sense now, nice 1
